There is now finally a way to visit Mexico in Red Dead Redemption 2 without using glitches. Despite some key characters in the story having ties to the location, it was inaccessible in the 2018 title’s main campaign, leaving many to wonder if Rockstar would add it in later story DLC, but unfortunately this never materialized.
Mexico was featured in the first Red Dead Redemption game as the second region John Marston travelled to in his pursuit of two of his former allies from the doomed Van der Linde Gang, Bill Williamson and Javier Escuella, during the main storyline. In this time he also assisted a rebel group led by Abraham Reyes as part of the Mexican Revolution. Unfortunately, when playing its prequel, Red Dead Redemption 2, players will hit an invisible wall if they try to get into Mexico, despite the location appearing on the game’s map.
Despite it not being accessible officially in Red Dead Redemption 2’s story, some players managed to find an exploitable glitch that allowed them to access Mexico. To exploit this Mexico glitch, players must have completed the main story of Red Dead Redemption 2, which allowed them to travel to New Austin. From there, they’d have to travel to the westernmost point, along the Sea of Coronado and ride their horse through the water, aiming to the right of a rock on the shoreline to find the hole in the invisible wall.
Unfortunately, once in this part of the map, there isn’t much to do, and if players go too far off the map, they’ll fall into a void and die. It’s possible to visit locations such as El Presidio, but the models are incomplete and have lower resolution texturing, clearly only intended to be seen from a distance. Other areas from the first game, such as Casa Madrugada or Las Hermanas also simply don’t exist, with players seeing a bare piece of land upon traveling there. The rocky, leveled terrain of Escalera is also present, but with none of the buildings.
Red Dead Redemption 2 has been largely praised since its launch for its impressive visuals and rich open-world, which covers a large portion of Rockstar’s fictional version of the United States of America. Territories from the first Red Dead Redemption such as New Elizabeth and New Austin received a major revamp for the prequel, allowing players to explore these locations with more detail than before. Therefore, it was a shame for those fans of the series who wanted to see some of Red Dead Redemption’s Mexican locations upgraded to this quality as well.
